Oh for sure I'd love to get them all. Vancouver though has a noticable lack of toy stores, the only Toys R Us being downtown. The local Wal-Mart is literally the only store near me that has a proper toy section, although I've never seen turtles toys there ever.

So it comes down to ordering online I guess.

Playmetes has yet to make some Mirage-ish turtles based on the comic. I know that unless they appear in the cartoon generally they won't touch it. But if Nick pushes Turtles Forever maybe Playmates can give us some badass ''Turtle Prime'' figures. I can only hope.

It doesn't appear that you're alone, but the vast majority of us don't seem to like it.

i have to say i was not wating for so god looking nic turtles but i think they look great and i love them i think this is the best turtles ever its like a mix of the old dark turtles from the first comic with a fresh up.this is the way they shued been drawn from the beginning,the 3 toe thing does bother me in traditional way but if you look at real turtles most of them has 3 toes and i have alway wonder way they has not have realt 3 toe but 3 finger so i like this look because it more realistic look with the old style.now the classic turtles i did like but they could have skippt the joints on the finger and the toe and the skin could have some more texture like the neca og the nic other than that they are fine and i hope they sell a lot so we get more.and the belt thing is not that mutch just some custom work and they are ot like. now we have got the pic and now it the long wait before i can buy them o boy i cant wait long

I'm pretty sure majority of the turtle species got 5 toes.

Theres the Three-Toed Box Turtle

While the Neca's are nearly perfect, I especially like the exaggerated look they gave the Prime Turtles and their dark gray colors.

Playmates told us in person that they didn't want to start with figures based on the comics since it's still so soon from when NECA did it.
But it's something they will consider after this initial run of wave 1.

can i honest a brutally honest fanboy question, do you think Playmates will ever re-do the Movie star turtles again but rebooted like the cartoon figures coming out?

imagine, posable movie star turtle figures from the first filme, i'd prob stop buying anymore figures after that.

Yeah, if I could get Movie 1 versions of the Turtles, Splinter, Casey, April, Shredder and some Foot Ninja... that'd make my life.

It's also designed to look like an Utrom exosuit more so than Krang's old android body.
